Boxed, mint with front and rear caps as well as Pentax bayonet mount hood.
Aperture snappy, no hazing or fungus, optically and cosmetically superb.

Price is £200 which includes tracked postage to standard UK addresses.

Always wanted it but adapting lenses with floating element is problematic on Sony's A7 cameras;( But I'm tempted now!

Lovely lens and very good price. I would never use it though. The 31 Ltd would always prove too tempting.

Fabulous lens at a very good price - If I didn't already have one I'd snap it up... and I don't even have a K-1 (makes a great 'fast-ish 50' on APS-C)...

Gareth, I wouldn't sell mine for that little.

Great lens on K-1 - £180 is a steal!

Would that involve butchery? If so why not get a K-1 and use it as intended as is?

Hi Gareth,
If the lens is still available, I am determined to buy it.

Go for it....I use a K1 plus 28-105 and the 35mm f2 which covers 90% of my needs- a great lens
